    Abstract: An inductor includes a plurality of stacked core parts having aligned central openings, at least one spacer separating the core parts from one another, and a winding comprising a plurality turns wound around the stack of core parts through central openings of the core parts. The at least one spacer may include respective groups of spacers disposed between respective pairs of the core parts. In some embodiments, the at least one spacer may include a plurality of spacers disposed between first and second ones of the core parts and radially distributed in a circular pattern aligned with the first and second core parts.

    Abstract: A medium or low voltage circuit interrupter includes a housing with a first end cap, a second end cap that comprises a radial bellows, and one or more insulating sidewalls that extends from the first end cap to the second end cap. The end caps and one or more sidewalls provide a vacuum chamber. A fixed contact that extends through an opening of the first end cap and into the vacuum chamber. A moveable contact that extends through an opening of the second end cap and into the vacuum chamber. Multiple such interrupters may be electrically connected in series, positioned a single plane, and actuated by a single actuator.

    Abstract: A disconnect switch assembly includes first and second disconnect switches with each of the first and second disconnect switch including a housing, a fixed main contact in the housing, and a movable main contact in the housing in cooperating alignment with the fixed main contact. Each of the movable main contacts is coupled to a (common) first actuator. A second actuator is coupled to the housing of the first disconnect switch and a third actuator is coupled to the housing of the second disconnect switch. The first actuator is configured to concurrently apply first and second motive forces (in opposing but in-line directions) to the movable contacts of the first and second disconnect switches. The second and third actuators are configured to apply a motive force to the housings that is in a direction opposing a respective motive force applied by the first actuator to the movable main contacts.

    Abstract: An operating mechanism for a circuit breaker including an opening, first actuator assembly and a closing, second actuator assembly. The first actuator assembly is structured to operatively engage at least one movable contact and is structured to move the at least one movable contact from a first configuration to a second configuration. The second actuator assembly is structured to operatively engage the at least one movable contact and is structured to move the at least one movable contact from the second configuration to the first configuration. The first actuator assembly and the second actuator assembly are split cooperative actuator assemblies.
